When he was about to enter the station, he received a telegram from Tongji City.

Excellence took the telegram and stood at the door of the carriage to stop talking.

I smiled and said, "What do you mean?"

Zhuo Zhuo said with an ugly face: "Director Li of the Tongji City Temporary Management Committee asked Commissioner Xu not to get out of the car. ”

I took the telegram and read it, and it read: There are many refugees in the city, such as drowning in water chestnuts and boiled vegetables, and I ask Commissioner Xu and the leaders to wait on the train. The payment was made by Li Changhai, director of the Interim Management Committee of Tongji City, and Lin Weimin, deputy director.

I was silent for a moment, there are so many refugees like boiled vegetables? Is this an excuse for the chaos of management?

Tiffany took the telegram and glanced at it, and said to everyone with a smile: "I'm afraid that these two leaders are shooting themselves in the foot, but they don't know that our committee member Xu didn't want to get out of the car, so I'm afraid we have to go for a walk now." ”

Everyone laughed.

Fang Honggang walked up to me and whispered, "Master." ”

I turned my head and saw that he was frowning as if he had something to say.

I thought that this kid was a person from the capital, and he might not know anything.

followed Fang Honggang to the cab, but saw Fang Honggang say to me with a serious face: "Master, I also advise you not to get out of the car." ”

"Oh?" I raised the corners of my eyebrows, and was about to reprimand, but I saw Gong Xue following behind me and shook her head at me.

But he saw Fang Honggang and said: "Master, when I was still in the Immortal God Realm, I heard that this Tongji City, which is only less than ten kilometers in radius, is now crowded in with nearly five million refugees. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be surprised.

"How can there be so many?" asked Excellence, who had just come in, with a look of surprise.

Fang Honggang said with an ugly face: "Because starting from Tongji City to the main city of the capital, there are three city walls. In the beginning, refugees were allowed to enter without discrimination. But later, there were spies of the Ni people who mixed into the main city. So ......"

Before he finished speaking, I already understood.

This is the first point of screening for refugees who have gathered throughout North China.

Nodding silently, I turned to look out the window at the sun that was about to set.

Excellence cautiously asked, "So, are we still getting out of the car?"

I pulled out a cigarette and held it in my mouth, holding a lighter in my hand, but it didn't light it.

After thinking about it for a moment, I said, "Get out of the car." ”

After a pause, I added, "Just the two of us." ”

As soon as the train stopped, I got off the front of the train with Excellence.

Glancing at the welcoming crowd in front of the passenger compartment, I was overshadowed by Excellence.

Walking to the fence of the station, the two jumped lightly, jumped over the iron fence more than two meters high, and landed lightly outside the station.

As far as the eye can see, under the dim street lamps, the shacks made of striped cloth and plastic sheeting can be seen as far as the eye can see, flooding the sidewalks on both sides of the road.

On the road, police officers with long guns are patrolling back and forth.

I nodded to myself, orderly, this is the most basic requirement I have for the management of this city.

Walking forward, a policeman spotted us, but raised his gun excitedly.

"Don't move, raise your hands. The policeman shouted.

I smiled and said, "You told me not to move, and you told me to raise my hands, so what should I do?"

I looked at the face of the policeman who had become a little hideous from nervousness.

Zhuo Zhuo whispered behind him: "He is holding a five-six-type semi-automatic rifle, an army-standard weapon from the sixties and seventies of the last century. ”

I nodded, looked at the alarmed police officers who were running this way, and said, "Let's go." ”

Excellence nodded, and in the blink of an eye, he was behind the policeman, and with a slight wave of his hand, the policeman with the gun fell to the ground limply.

I looked around, and with excellence, walked down a side alley.

The alley is not long, about a dozen meters, and I gently lift my body and keep my feet off the ground ten centimeters to avoid the sewage flowing under my feet.

Looking back at Excellence, he was already floating in the air.

Slipping down the alley, I saw a foul smell coming, and I couldn't help covering my mouth and nose.

After thinking about it, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wrapped his mouth and nose. This handkerchief belongs to Qi Ming, and I have been wearing it on my body since I tied my hair last time.

Through the unique faint aroma of Qi Ming's body, I took a deep breath, looked at the excellence that had torn off a piece of cloth from the placket and covered my mouth and nose tightly, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Let's go."

Outside the alley, there is a huge garbage heap, from which the stench comes from.

Crossing the garbage dump and climbing over a fence, we found ourselves in a residential complex.

But now it has become a real "residential community." ”

The open space in front of several buildings was filled with tents, and only a path was left in front of the holes in the residential buildings.

The landscape trees in the community are full of ropes and all kinds of clothes, which are hung on top of it, like hanging the flags of all nations.

Probably hearing movement, occasionally someone poked their heads out of the tent and saw me and Excellence, but they shrank back with a "whoosh".

"Master, there's someone over there. Excellence said to me.

Following the direction of Excellence's finger, I saw a sneaky figure appear in a hole in front of me, walking towards the dark corner of the building.

"Go check it out. I said.

Walking to the side of the building, we stopped.

I couldn't help but laugh when I heard the suppressed wheezing sounds.

It's a red-light district.

Just as we wanted to leave, a man stood in front of us.

"Boss, if you want to have fun, they are all beautiful women, college students, white-collar workers, young women, you name it. It's all high-end goods. A thin man said to me with a lewd smile.

I ignored him.

Excellence brushed him away with his hand and said to me, "Let's go." ”

I was about to take a step, but I heard the man say again: "As long as there are two steamed buns, these are really clean, selected from the refugees." ”

I stopped, turned my head and asked, "Only two steamed buns for the refugees?"

The man smiled lewdly, leaned over and said, "Of course, if these women didn't come out to sell, do you think their families would be able to live in the community?"

I jerked around, grabbed the man by the neck, and lifted him off the ground.

His face turned red and he couldn't speak, but he screamed "babbling".

A dozen disheveled men came out of the surrounding tents, and when they saw this, they all used sticks to surround us.

I ignored them and just said to the thin man, "Who's the leader?"

The men glanced at each other, and a middle-aged man who was still neatly dressed walked out.

"This little brother has something to say. Let's put Hou San down first. He arched his hand at me and said.

I glanced at him and threw Hou San to the ground.

"Are you the leader?name, occupation?" said Zhuo Zhuo to the middle-aged man.

The man was stunned for a moment, smiled, and said to me: "My name is Lei Jie, a native of the Central Plains, I was originally a professor at Zhongyuan University, and now I am the captain of the Fifth Brigade of the Tongji City Refugee Camp. ”

I sneered and said, "Still a leader, that's how you lead the Fifth Refugee Brigade?"

Lei Jie smiled bitterly and said, "You just arrived in Tongji City, right?"

I didn't speak, and Excellence snorted.

Lei Jie waved his hand to the people behind him and said to us, "Please come and sit in the pavilion." ”

Excellence was about to speak, but I raised my hand to stop him.

I was mentally prepared for the situation in the refugee camp. It's just that when I first got out of the station and when I first entered this community, I saw the scene that made me too optimistic.

I said to Excellence, "Go ahead, listen to what he has to say. ”

Passing through the "red light district" of dozens of tents, we came to a gazebo in the corner of the community wall.

Mosquito nets hung around the pavilion, a table in the middle, several stools, and a bamboo bed in the corner.

Ray invited us to sit down, but instead took out a few more glasses, poured us water, and sat down himself.

"These women, all of them are voluntary. Lei Jie said.

A month ago, Tongji City ran out of food. Only the aboriginal people still have some food in their homes.

These helpless refugees could still rely on the government's work for relief, repairing the fence and so on in exchange for three meals a day.

However, the government ran out of food, so cash-for-work stopped.

In desperation, the government had no choice but to stipulate that except for military dependents and government workers, the rest of the people should find their own way.

This leaves those who are orphaned, widowed, and those who have not joined the army have no choice.

"I'm not afraid to laugh at you, my woman, too, in one of the tents. Lei Jie said with his head buried in his head.

Excellence said disdainfully: "You are a big man, there is no way at all?"

"I'm old, and no one wants me to join the army. When I was the captain, I only had a ration of steamed buns a day, and it didn't matter, but my son was only nine years old and had to eat every day. Lei Jie said with his head down.

"Who are your customers?" I asked, my voice chilling.

"I don't know, every night, some people come, and when they're done, they leave. Lei Jie said.

"Aren't you ashamed?" said Excellence angrily.

Lei Jie raised his head, his eyes were red and said, "Shame, it's been more than three years, and we've been refugees for more than three years." What is there to be ashamed of when you are hungry? I have done my best to keep the men of our brigade, and if you look at the people in the South Square, there are people who eat the dead. ”

I was shocked, eat the dead?

The slackness of morality and ethics is a precursor to the collapse of a race.

Excellence was also stunned and looked at me blankly.

I stood up and said to Reger: "Stop your business, tomorrow the government will come out." Although there is still a war going on in the Central Plains Province, most of the Ni people have been wiped out. Be ready, go back in the near future, and the army will keep you safe. ”

After a pause, I added, "Tell these women and their families not to stay with you anymore and disperse." Now that the road is clear, you can go to the south, go to the fairy realm, and start a new life. ”

Lei Jie jerked his head up.

But I'm gone with excellence.

"Master, are you still going to the South Square he said?" asked Zhuo Zhuo.

"No, I won't. I said with some heaviness.

Along the way, I was silent.

Back on the train, Qi Ming was waiting for us at the front of the train.

As soon as she saw me, she anxiously walked up and said, "The people in the government are still waiting for you, Gong Xue and Xiao Fang are with you." ”

I didn't say anything and walked straight to the cabin.

As soon as I entered the passenger compartment, I saw two old men with gray temples sitting and drinking tea.

When they saw me, they quickly stood up.

Gong Xue paused for a moment when she saw me with a black face, but quickly recovered, turned around and introduced to the two old men: "This is Commissioner Xu." ”

An old man stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Commissioner Xu, look up for a long time, I am Li Changhai." ”

I ignored him, walked over to the seat across from them, turned my back to them, took off my hat, and threw it on the table.

After sorting out his emotions, he turned around and sat down, and said, "Li Changhai, you should be shot." ”

The smile on Li Changhai's face froze.

The other old man was stunned for a moment, his face changed red and white, and said, "Commissioner Xu is so powerful." ”

Li Changhai trembled, turned around and scolded angrily: "Lao Lin, don't speak." ”

I ignored him, sneered, stared at Li Changhai and said, "Let the refugees figure it out on their own?" Are you a leader? You touch your conscience and think about it. ”

Li Changhai trembled, held the table with his hand, and said, "Commissioner Xu, we really can't ...... it."

Another old man said: "Lao Li, we have asked the ...... of the central government."

Li Changhai suddenly turned around and roared angrily: "Lin Weimin, you have to keep your mouth shut." ”

Turning his head, he suddenly knelt down and said: "Commissioner Xu, His Royal Highness the Heavenly King Wuzhong, you can shoot me, I ask you for the last time on behalf of the refugees to leave a little food on the material train for Tongji, here, I really can't hold on." ”

Lin Weimin suddenly knelt down and said, "Commissioner Xu, please leave a little food for Tongji City for the sake of us guarding the front line for the capital for three years." ”

Qi Ming, who was carrying two cups, came in from the carriage door, looking at the scene in front of him, but he was stunned.

I looked at Gong Xue, who was also stunned, and said, "Take Qi Ming out." ”

Qi Ming looked at me, put the plate on the table, and said to me, "These two old men are seriously malnourished, after you finish speaking, tell them to drink the milk." ”

I nodded and said to her, "Tell them to prepare some food." ”

After Qi Ming and Gong Xue went out.

I stood up and walked to the window to look out.

The situation in Tongji City is very difficult, but there are nearly 20 million people in the capital, what kind of scene should it look like?

I don't know what happened to Number One now.

When I think of the kind smile that No. 1 had when he looked at me, I couldn't help but feel a chord in my heart.

Turning around, I said to the two of them, "Get up and drink the milk." ”

Li Changhai looked at me and didn't move.

I sneered and said, "Don't think about the trick of the palace, since I know that I am Xu Jin, I should know my age and my experience, that set is useless to me." ”

Li Changhai sighed and said to Lin Weimin: "Get up." ”

Lin Weimin stood up, but straightened his waist and said, "What we did is worthy of our hearts." ”

I slammed the table, and the milk cup jumped twice on the table.

"But you are incompetent. I yelled.

Lin Weimin lowered his head.

Li Changhai looked at me and said quietly: "Commissioner Xu, we are indeed incompetent. ”

I ignored them, turned to Excellence and said, "Send a report to the capital." ”

Excellence hurriedly took out a small notebook and pencil.

"Beijing, and No. 1: We have arrived in Tongji, where there are many refugees and food is unsustainable. He wanted to leave all the food in the supply train there for the relief of the refugees. ”

"Also, at present, the passage between the south and the capital has been opened, and I have ordered the southern provinces and the special zones of the immortal god realm to quickly mobilize grain, and it is expected that within two days, the first batch of grain can arrive in the capital. Since the Central Plains Province is already under the de facto control of our army, it is recommended that the repatriation of refugees be started immediately. ”

In addition, it is recommended to immediately carry out reconstruction work along the railway line and in the Central Plains Province, and to help the returning refugees to resume production and life as soon as possible in the situation of cash-for-work. If not, please reply. Xu Jinyue. ”

When I finished recording the excellence, I waved my hand and said, "Send it out as soon as it is checked." ”

After Zhuo Zhuo went out, I said to the two of them, "Sit down and drink milk." ”

The two glanced at each other, quickly sat down, picked up the cup, and drank the milk in one go.

Qi Ming said to me at the door, "The meal is ready." ”

I said, "Come in." ”

Twenty steamed buns, a plate of shredded pork with green peppers, a plate of mapo tofu, and a bowl of tomato and egg soup.

I couldn't help but feel a little sad as I watched the two old men swallow five or six steamed buns at a speed that was very inappropriate for their age, and ate all the vegetables and soup.

These two are both leaders who manage a city, but I didn't expect to be hungry like this.

The situation on the outskirts of the capital is so difficult, which I really didn't expect.

Li Changhai raised his head, looked at me with some embarrassment, and said, "Xu Yuan." ”

I said, "Not enough?"

But he said, "No, I mean to say, can you ask someone to take the rest of the steamed buns and these broths home for me? ”

I felt a little uncomfortable, and said, "Take it back yourself, and when you leave, I'll have someone bring you a bag of flour." At most, there will be too much food to eat in a week. ”

I have confidence in saying this, not to mention the southern provinces, even if the reserve grain of the Immortal God Realm is enough for all the people of Huaguo to eat for five years.

Lin Weimin was stunned and muttered, "Commissioner Xu, aren't you going to shoot us?"

This time, I was stunned, and after a while, I said: "I shot you, who will organize the repatriation of the refugees? Hurry up and eat and get out, I will rush to the capital soon, if things are not done well here, I will really shoot people." ”

Li Changhai and Lin Weimin glanced at each other, but said together: "Thank you, Commissioner Xu." ”

Excellence hurriedly walked in and handed me the reply from the capital, I took it and looked at it, there were only two words on it: agree.
